94970 2002-10-31 23:21:00 Hi, I am trying to download the latest two updates for XP, but when I click on the download button, a script error pops up for the EULA screen. Clicking "yes" or "no" cloases the window, but the accept button on the EULA screen remains greyed out so I can't accept the agreement and get my update.

Here (2guys1girl.hostnz.co.nz) is a sreen shot of the error.

Is anyone else having the same difficulty?? Any ideas?? I have tried it with both Microsoft VM running and Sun's VM with no difference in result.

94972 2002-11-01 00:44:00 I've been suffering from this for the past couple of days too. Interestingly enough if you st XP to remind you or automatically downlod the update there's no problem. crozier (2004)
94973 2002-11-01 02:57:00 There may be a problem with the Update Class.

Go to:
Tools > Internet Options > General > Temporary Internet Files > Settings > View Objects

In here, there should be an 'Update Class'. Right click on it and select 'Update'.

IE6 will now Update the Update Class (no comment) and this will hopefuly repair the error!

94978 2002-11-01 07:44:00 I had to write an essay on the content of their new license agreements, perhaps its doing this for your own good :-). bmason (508)
94979 2002-11-01 20:38:00 Those ker-aaazy EULA's...

I wouldn't mind reading an article or two on the intricacies/implications of these behemoths. There's alot of wording that can catch you out.

Good luck on the essay bmason, could be interesting to see what you find!
